After the meeting, I investigated the latest version of Mozilla.  It 
works  a lot better than the last version I tried.  It picked up all of the 
config information from Netscape, including the Password Manager data, AND, 
I can actually use the DOM inspector, which would always blow up under 
Netscape 7.01.

The Mozilla I downloaded has Venkman included.  But, I am need to get a 
little more familiar with it to fully understand how it operates.  I have 
used many debugging and tracing tools before, but Venkman doesn't seem to 
single step quite the way I would expect.

ob perl: do you have any tips for tracing execution of global JavaScript in 
a page dynamically generated from a PERL program?  I ended up adding a 
button to initiate the JavaScript so I had time to set a breakpoint.


Thanks for the scoop on these tools.
